1. Jethro Tull invented the seed drill and it was a device used to put seeds in the ground.
2. The inventions were helpful for farming, commerce, and trade. They greatly impacted industry at the time.
3. Richard Trevithick built the first steam locomotive in 1802. This invention was significant because it allowed trains to transport goods to and from destinations.

Inference:
Britain's iron ores and coal fields were mainly on the coasts and in the center of the country. Due to its location Britain's location allowed for the country to easily trade with neighboring countries such as Ireland, France, and Belgium. Iron and coal products allowed for Britain to have a booming economy. Their economy probably inspired ,many other countries and the coal and iron industries spread. However, the coal fields on the coast may have led to water pollution from runoff as well as air pollution. The waterways allowed products to be transported all across the country by boat and quickly ship out goods directly. With the growing industry, job opportunities arose as well.

Factors of Production in History
Factors of Production Today
- Coal, iron ore, waterways, unemployed farmers, cash, human talentà British industrial empire - Essential elements that a nation needs to achieve economic successàland, labor, capital LAND: - Water resources - Streams & riversà water wheels and generate power, transportation between mines, factories, and markets LABOR: - Food supplyà Growing populationà work in industry CAPITAL: - Refers to funds for investment in business - Had money to spendà prosperity - “human capital”à people with abilities and skills needed for industry
- Running water not an efficient power sourceà fossil fuels such as oil are important - Huge numbers of skilled workers - Capital resources shiftà Asia & Middle East fund factories - Affect wealth & political power
COMPARE & PREDICT:
Factors of production consist of land, labor, and capital. As other nations developed, Britain no longer was the location of the factors of production. Though the country had waterways that had been resourceful in history, today fossil fuels such as oil are the more efficient power source used by nations. These fuels are found in other countries rather than Britain. In the future an alternate source of power may be discovered shifting the location of factors of production to the area where those resources are located.
1) Industrialization benefited Great Britain giving it wealth and power and in Sweden indirectly industry helped the economy because it had natural resources that other countries needed. 2) I think the benefits were greater because even if industry was expensive, their products/goods the produced helped create a profit, so it eventually balanced out, otherwise they would not have continued. 3) Countries that dominated industry because of resources could become imperialistic because other countries would be at their mercy (for lack of a better word) because they needed the goods the dominating nation had. Also with more resources they would have more money thus have more power.
Read Chapter 9.1 p. to find out & answer how Great Britain implemented and political reforms. Write a summarizing paragraph describing The Reform Act of 1832 and the Factory Act of 1833. How does the passage of these acts compare to reforms in US History? How could these legislative acts contribute to British Imperialism of Asia and Africa?
- The reform Act of 1832 permitted the voting of the middle- class men, offering representation in Parliament. The act reduced the power of the aristocracy by increasing the number of eligible voters. Although women were not included in this voting act, the system has provided more stability and equality in parliament. After numerous amounts of children were pulled out of school to work long, harsh hours, the Factory act was established which required that children 9 through 13 attended school for at least 2 hours a day, and made 12 hour work shifts illegal for teenagers.
If British children were not working long hours anymore, the factories would have to extend production to make up for the loss. If their factories moved to other countries they could open up jobs for people, that those people would need, and easily spread across developing nations in places such as Asia and Africa. Eventually, with British factories, industries, and products, the other countries would become reliant on them, and Britain could easily become imperialistic.

Technology
- With the use of steam and electricity new technology arose. Transportation became more modernized and efficient because of trains and automobiles. Also communication was transformed as telephones came into use.
Medicine
- New studies found medicines that would prevent and reduce disease, making city life safer and healthier.
Education, leisure, and Art
- People became more cultured as they studied arts, were exposed to new activities, and received education.
- Fire
- Metal
- Dark smoky room
- People eating in the corner
- Tools
- Making metals, coal
- Polluted from factory products
- Unsanitary conditions
- Creating/building something
Summary: The Industrial Revolution, though helpful for the economy, posed hazardous with unsanitary conditions for those working in the industry.
